Back of Button
Transcontinental Air Transport was incorporated in 1928. The Transcontinental Air Transport-Maddux Air Lines (TAT) was formed from merger of Curtiss Aeroplane & Motor Co, National Air Transport, Pennsylvania Railroad, Wright Aero Corp, and St Louis businessmen. In 1929, the company merged with Western Air Express as Transcontinental & Western Air and became TWA. Superior Quality was a name used by the Waterbury Button Company, between 1875-1935 and the Steele & Johnson company who were acquired by the Waterbury Company.
